Enjoyed our stay. Very limited parking but street parking was fairly easy to find. Very comfortable and right on the bus route which was helpful for our adventuring.

This hostel was in a great location, on a bus route just 10 minutes from the city center. It had parking and breakfast available and the staff were very helpful. Room was clean and comfortable (we had a twin ensuite). Very flexible check in

This hostel is fantastic! The rooms are incredibly spacious, and since we were a group of four, we were given two rooms connected by a bathroom in the middle. Both rooms are cozy, and the bathroom is large and clean, featuring a fantastic shower. The decor of the hostel is vibrant and eclectic, adding to the overall charm. Plus, there's a mini fridge in the bedroom, which is a nice touch. One thing to note is that there is no air conditioning, but it didn't affect our stay; I'm just mentioning it for anyone who might be concerned. We were lucky to snag the last parking spot at the hotel, but the parking area is quite small, which might pose a problem if it gets busy. The location is convenient, being close to restaurants and grocery stores, and it was wonderfully quiet at night, making it easy to get a good night's sleep. When we left the hostel at 6 AM, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Overall, we had a great experience!

We enjoyed by staying in the Nest. Normally such boutique hotels don’t have the elevators so we were surprise to see the one in the Nest which makes easy to handle the luggage. The breakfast is continental with limited options but sufficient to start the day.

Solo stay

The room was a good size, the facilities were clean, and the staff was helpful. I didn't try the breakfast because no cooked stuff. Overall no complaints! Keep in mind this is a small city so the bus connecting the hostel to the center is often late and sometimes infrequent!

Stayed with family

Very nice place. On the high end for a hostel, but at that price point it's missing some of the basics. The reception should learn how to treat guests in hospitality. He knocked on our door at 10:15 AM advising that checkout was at 10:00 AM and immediately threatened us with a penalty, all with a very unpleasant attitude. There is a proper way to speak to guests. When we challenged his behavior, he replied, “We are just a hostel...” which is quite surprising considering the price point. In the end, I paid the penalty. A perfect example of how to ruin a guest experience. Completely ridiculous.

Street parking only and a bit of a walk. Small but clean room. Breakfast was fine - very little protein options.

Solo stay

This is an unusual hostel in that there are private rooms with bathrooms too. It had neat boho vibes--reminded me of early 1970's when I was in college. Everyone was so friendly and kind. I had left a bag in a taxi and Sara (?, sorry I forgot already) ran and got it for me. My running days are behind me and I wouldn't have been able catch him in time. Plus she gave me a more convenient room. The room and everything that I saw was very clean. The elevator was appreciated. There is a coffee shop on premises and breakfast is served for €8--the menu is quite extensive so it's a good deal. I usually skip break so I didn't get to try it. About 5 minutes away (walking) are some nice restaurants. I really enjoyed my stay and very much recommend this hostel.

Staff are really friendly. Breakfast was okay, there was everything you need for the breakfast. Our room was better than we expected. You get more than you pay. Absolutely worth it!!
